What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
objectiveThe aim of the present study is to compare autistic symptoms and empathy of adolescents aged 12-18 years with bipolar disorder (BPSD) and disruptive mood dysregulation disorder (DMDD) to healthy adolescents.
methodsIn this study, 21 adolescents diagnosed with BPSD, 21 adolescents diagnosed with DMDD and 21 healthy adolescents similar in age and gender were included. Autistic symptoms were evaluated using the Autism Diagnostic Interview-Revised (ADI-R) and Social Communication Questionnaire (SCQ), and empathy was evaluated with the KA-SI Empathic Tendency Scale for Children and Adolescents (KA-SI ETS).
resultsSignificant differences were detected among the groups in ADI-R and SCQ, and healthy adolescents received statistically significantly lower scores. Empathy skills of healthy adolescents were evaluated as better than those in the BPSD and DMDD groups.
conclusionIn our study, it was shown that young people with a diagnosis of DMDD had more difficulties in empathy skills, and they had more autistic symptoms than young people with BPSD and healthy adolescents. Providing support in terms of these empathy skills and evaluation of autistic symptoms in the treatment of young people diagnosed with BPSD and DMDD may affect both the psychosocial functionality of the cases and the course of the disease.
